Wheel recommendations?

I have a 2018 340ix GT, it's currently running 4x 225/50R-18. I've done some damage to my wheels (oem), mostly scrapes on the outside, as far as I can tell they're still fine to drive on.

However, I'm looking into maybe just buying a new set of wheels, and I'll keep these scraped up ones for the winter, and swap to my good set for the warmer weather. That way I could run something like PS4S in the summer, and either my continental dws06+ or some other winter tires.

I'm not too familiar with buying wheels, and I'm wondering how the 19" looks on our GT model, and whether anyone would recommend staying on 18" for a daily driver.

Anyone have good brands to recommend? I saw the oem wheel and tire set for winter, individual wheel looks like 36116865157. Those are black and nice (I think I want to go with black). I'm not sure I want to pay anything over $500 per wheel, and definetly not interested in $1k/wheel.

Yeah looking at my options, it honestly seems like https://www.shopbmwusa.com/product/6...L-AND-TIRE-SET is a good deal. Would anyone recommend cheaper wheels?

I could use these this winter, and then swap them over to summer tires following that, and use my old wheels the following winter.

I just saw this ad. 763M's are the best forged wheels that BMW makes. Very light. About $1,000 each when discounted. Don't see many for sale used. This is a good deal and it's only a few hours from you.

You can run 245/35-19, 285/30-19 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S
